Default Cragar 20"s

Anyone running Cragar 20"s? American Muscle has a clearance special of $139.99 per rim and I just ordered them with the Sumitomo tires. No tax. No shipping. No mounting fees. Rims and tires = $1074. Not bad IMHO.

I almost did the same. I just wasnt sure about going up to 20's especially in a heavy chrome wheel. they look good though.

44 or 46 lbs (according to Cragar.com) a piece just for the wheels in 20s"? That's over twice the weight of the stock wheels. That's just crazy. Also, personally I don't think the new style S/Ses look that good to begin with. But, if you're happy, I'm happy for you. That said, doesn't seem like too bad a price on the wheels.

To "in-the-hood"ish for my taste. I like more rubber and less wheel, not a trash can lid with a rubber band around it. But as said above, if you're happy...

That right there is pretty funny! For your info, did you know the 2010 Mustang GT comes with 19" premium trash can lids stock? Give Ford a year or two and they'll be up to 20" wheels!

Well, I got the tires and rims yesterday from American Muscle. I got them put on tonight. I've attached a pic for all the Haterz. I think they look damn good, especially on a Satin Silver car!
